A Rare Complication during Vaginal Delivery, Hamman's Syndrome: A Case Report and Systematic Review of Case Reports.

Background: Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) during pregnancy or labor is a rare event. We presented a case report and a systematic review of the literature to provide comprehensive symptoms, treatments, and complications analysis in the pregnant population affected by SPM.

Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search of four databases for published papers in all languages from the beginning to 1 September 2021; Results: We included 76 papers with a total of 80 patients.

Update of Robotic Surgery in Benign Gynecological Pathology: Systematic Review.

Since the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) approval in 2005, the application of robotic surgery (RS) in gynecology has been adopted all over the world. This study aimed to provide an update on RS in benign gynecological pathology by reporting the scientific recommendations and high-value scientific literature available to date. A systematic review of the literature was performed.

Hysteroscopic and ultrasonographic evaluation of ulipristal acetate treatment for symptomatic myomas in premenopausal women: a prospective study.

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effects of a six-month therapy with ulipristal acetate (UPA) on myoma size and endometrial thickness in premenopausal women.

Material And Methods: Seventy-four women undergoing conservative therapy with UPA were enrolled for this study. All women underwent transvaginal ultrasound evaluation to assess the endometrial thickness, and the number and size of myomas at the beginning and after six months.

TNF-α effect on human delivery onset by CB1/TRPV1 crosstalk: new insights into endocannabinoid molecular signaling in preterm vs. term labor. Analysis of the EC/EV pathway and predictive biomarkers for early diagnosis of preterm delivery.

Background: Endocannabinoids/endovanilloid (EC/EV) system and inflammation are recognized as key regulators of cell-signaling pathways in female reproduction. The knowledge of predictive biomarkers involved in preterm birth (PTB) represents an important goal to make an early diagnosis. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of EC/EV system and inflammation in human delivery, in placental samples from spontaneous deliveries.

Efficacy of Low-Dose Paroxetine for the Treatment of Hot Flushes in Surgical and Physiological Postmenopausal Women: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials.

Hot flushes and sleep disturbances are the most common vasomotor symptoms (VMS) reported by postmenopausal women. Hormonal treatment is to date referred to as the gold standard approach but not suitable for all the patients. Alternative treatments are needed in case of a contraindication to menopausal hormone therapy (MHT), adverse side effects, and poor compliance.

A partial molar pregnancy associated with a fetus with intrauterine growth restriction delivered at 31 weeks: a case report.

Introduction: Molar pregnancies belong to a group of diseases classified as gestational trophoblastic diseases, which result from an altered fertilization. Partial molar pregnancy with a live fetus is a very rare condition, occurring in 0.005 to 0.

[Diagnostic accuracy of endocervicoscopy as preoperative tool to improve the excisional treatment of cervical preneoplastic lesions].

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of endocervicoscopy as a preoperative examination to improve the outcome of the excisional treatment (LEEP) of high-grade cervical preneoplastic lesions.

Methods: Patients with histologic diagnosis of CIN II-CIN III undergoing LEEP divided in two groups: in group A (85 women) a preoperative endocervicoscopy was performed, in group B (85 women) no additional examination was performed before LEEP. The size of the surgical specimen (H, D, W) and the margins of the lesion were evaluated.

Effect of weight loss on cardiac synchronization and proinflammatory cytokines in premenopausal obese women.

Objective: Obesity is an important risk factor for heart failure in both women and men. Dyssynchrony between right and left ventricular contraction and relaxation has been identified as an independent predictor of heart failure. We examined the relationship of ventricular synchronization abnormalities with the concentration of proinflammatory cytokines in obese women at baseline and after sustained weight loss.
